Project List as at May 2020

May has started and it’s time to update my UFO and new projects list.

I’m up to 7 UFO’s done and 1 quilt completed that was started this year.

May’s goal is:

1. Bind and complete two small quilts
2. Sew the individual Frolic blocks (this one might be tough, they are slow going and finicky)
3. Put borders on the orange and blue quilt (Fourth of July)
4. Quilt 1 small quilt.

Here is the one Frolic block that has been made:

I’m making good progress on my smaller quilts that are easy to quilt on my home sewing machine but as I don’t have access to rent studio time to use the long arm quilting machine my larger quilts have remained undone. When the world is back to normal I’ll be spending a few Saturday’s getting some of my larger quilts quilted so that they can get off of the list this year.
